MissionPalooza Worksites
KC Pet Project - Youth
KC Pet Project
KC Pet Project is building a more compassionate community for pets and people by caring for over 16,000 animals a year. They work with other animal welfare organizations to increase the number of homeless pets adopted and focus on lifesaving programs promoting pet retention, identification, lost pet reunions, and supporting keeping families and their pets together throughout the community. Volunteers help in many ways, such as Animal Handling and Care:
Help keep animals happy and active by assisting with dog walking, playgroups, or socializing cats and dogs; Animal Enrichment: Help improve the mental health of the animals in our care by assembling dog and cat treats and toys. This opportunity is kid friendly!; Administrative Support
Use your organizational skills to assist with filing, mailings, data entry, returning phone calls and other clerical tasks; and Shelter Support (Non-animal handling): Help keep shelter pets happy and healthy through kennel cleaning, stocking inventory, and sorting donations.


Up to 10 youth and 2 adults will volunteer at KC pet project in the mornings and “at home” projects supporting KC Pet Project at St. Paul’s in the afternoon.
